For those unaware every ED tournament is named after a holiday. Large nationals will be large events, monthlies more obscure. Each tournament will incorporate the theme of that holiday. This national tournament is incorporating Valentine's Day...

Second National tournament for the Smash UK Championship Season 1 2014. This tournament should have a healthy turnout i.e. be a stacked tournament so there should be a large coin payout. Get yourself here ;)
